hi all gurus....im also interested in this public mutual...i know not much abt this..not sure how it works...i wanted to buy..what should i do? how it works? thanks for advice and guidance...

1. read the prospectus and understand it.
2. get a agent or go to PM branch for guides.
3. read my siggy.

THOUGHTS OF A UNIT TRUST PASSIVE INVESTOR.

To catch a falling knife. This phrase is often used to describe when you buy more on a downward trend; thinking that the trend had reached bottom; when actually the trend has stalled a while before plunging down again.

For the past 2 weeks, I was scared to log into PM to see my account statement. As expected my foreign funds were down really bad. My local domestic funds, I had switched to bond funds 2 months ago, the timely were off a bit too early, but never mind as they are holding up.

Sigh... still waiting for the foreign funds to climb up; as I’m too wary to put good money chasing after bad money.

For the bond funds, I’m going to play by the rules and wait out the 90 days period to deny PM any penalty charge. Hope KLSE will stay down till mid June!

Good night, and sleep well.

if u top up online today before 4pm. u r buying at today closing price, not yesterday.
if u top up online after 4pm, it will be tomorrow closing price.

correct me if im wrong

my PFA30F giving me -18.87% return

today closing 17/5 .... rm0.6140

so, what time u bought the units?

Never buy today.. just leave it lol. Hope this time going up up up

I still wondering why PM doesnt offer bearish market fund like other countries to short KLCI futures or companies stock.

today KLCI down again.

waited for like more than 1 yr for my fund to climb to + percentage, but it takes like only one week or more only for my funds to go into red... i hate it man!!!!

Which fund you invested on? What is your asset allocation?

goodness.. another repeat of Jul-Sep 2011, when Greece gave us the bugaboos, again?
OR
perhaps even worse since Spain's in the game too now..

Hehhe - no down, means no value fishing.
Happy fishing.

PS: Last round this happened, KLCI dropped about 15%+/- from it's maximum.
Just to share a gauge if U are interested.

are u currently fishing too?

Nope, not yet.
It's now only 4% to 5% drop from the max KLCI (recently hit a highest point mar).

4% to 5% is does not even cover service charges if cash investment , thus, i don't consider it value yet to fish.
I prefer shooting a barrel of fish

Target between 10-15%? using cash or switch from bond?

Hm.. something like that lar for a bit of target practice.
When lower than that by about 20% to 25%, then i'd use "dynamite fishing" instead of "shooting a barrel of fish", more effective
